# Class FacadeDataSource

java.lang.Object
com.smartgwt.client.core.BaseClass
com.smartgwt.client.data.DataSource
com.smartgwt.client.data.FacadeDataSource

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `HasHandlers`, `HasDataChangedHandlers`, `HasHandleErrorHandlers`

public class FacadeDataSource extends DataSource
Extends an arbitrary `DataSource` with the ability to queue requests made on it and dispatch the queued requests on demand. To use, create a FacadeDataSource instance with the `inheritsFrom` property set to the DataSource that you wish to extend.

This advanced class is intended to be used for testing data-bound components. This should not be used in production code.

See also the overview of the `DataSource Facade pattern`.

- ## Method Details

  - ### getOrCreateRef

    public static FacadeDataSource getOrCreateRef(JavaScriptObject jsObj)

  - ### create

    public JavaScriptObject create()
    Overrides:
      `create` in class `DataSource`

  - ### getQueuedRequests

    public DSRequest[] getQueuedRequests() throws IllegalStateException
    An array of derived DS requests that are queued to be `executed` on the underlying `inherited` DataSource.

    When a DS request is made on this FacadeDataSource, if `queueRequests` is true, then a new DS request is created based on the given DS request and added to this queue.

    To clear the queue, set `queueRequests` to false or call `clearQueue()`.

    Note : This method should be called only after the underlying component has been created.

    Returns:
      Current queuedRequests value. Default value is null
    Throws:
      `IllegalStateException` - if the underlying component has not yet been created.

  - ### setQueueRequests

    public FacadeDataSource setQueueRequests(boolean queueRequests)
    Should requests be queued?

    When DS requests are made on the FacadeDataSource, a new, derived DS request on the underlying `inherited` DataSource is created. If queueRequests is true, then the derived DS request is added to the `queuedRequests` array. If false, then the derived DS request is `executed` immediately on the inherited DataSource.
    If this method is called after the component has been drawn/initialized: Setter for `queueRequests`.

    Parameters:
      `queueRequests` - New queueRequests value. Default value is false
    Returns:
      `FacadeDataSource` instance, for chaining setter calls

  - ### getQueueRequests

    public boolean getQueueRequests()
    Should requests be queued?

    When DS requests are made on the FacadeDataSource, a new, derived DS request on the underlying `inherited` DataSource is created. If queueRequests is true, then the derived DS request is added to the `queuedRequests` array. If false, then the derived DS request is `executed` immediately on the inherited DataSource.

    Returns:
      Current queueRequests value. Default value is false

  - ### clearQueue

    public void clearQueue()
    Shorthand to clear the `request queue` without changing the value of `queueRequests`.

  - ### setDefaultProperties

    public static void setDefaultProperties(FacadeDataSource facadeDataSourceProperties)
    Class level method to set the default properties of this class. If set, then all existing and subsequently created instances of this class will automatically have default properties corresponding to the properties set on the SmartGWT class instance passed to this function before its underlying SmartClient JS object was created. This is a powerful feature that eliminates the need for users to create a separate hierarchy of subclasses that only alter the default properties of this class. Can also be used for skinning / styling purposes.

    Note: This method is intended for setting default attributes only and will affect all instances of the underlying class (including those automatically generated in JavaScript). This method should not be used to apply standard EventHandlers or override methods for a class - use a custom subclass instead. Calling this method after instances have been created can result in undefined behavior, since it bypasses any setters and a class instance may have already examined a particular property and not be expecting any changes through this route.

    Parameters:
      `facadeDataSourceProperties` - properties that should be used as new defaults when instances of this class are created
